Abstract

Now days concrete is the most widely used construction material due to its high strength and durability.Concrete needs a pleasant atmosphere for the development of strength, which will be provided by curing as prescribed by IS Code. Any neglectful in curing will effect the strength of the concrete. The water demand is increasing day by day and the sources are depleting. To counter this water demand we have made a study on ‘Self-Curing Concrete by the use of polyethylene glycol in M30 grade of concrete' which can drastically save the water used on the construction site.This study involves the use self curing agent-PolyEthylene Glycol (PEG400) which helps in self-curing of the concrete. Key Words: Concrete,Glass Fibers, Aggregate,Polyethylene Glycol,Superplastisizer
